Hello and welcome to HTD Digital…!
Home of artists Andrew Cockbill and Shawn Cartwright, HTD Digital is a
new label set to deliver an alternative sound to the scene.
It all began early 2007 when the pair first pondered the idea of setting
up the record label. The first of several tester events was in July
2007, when the duo hosted their own night in
with the aim of testing their sound which they had been trying to
perfect. After plenty of positive feedback, more events were arranged
and established DJs added to the lineups.
In high spirits from the reaction which they received, they registered
HTD Digital in December 2007 and proceeded to work hard towards
cementing the foundations of the HTD brand.
Their efforts were rewarded
when they attracted the attention of talented artists Keith Hyndes,
Ally B, Joe K, Krazykhalid, Hi-Freak and many more, who have all since had their compilations
snapped up by the label.
Shawn Cartwright’s definitive ‘Warlord’ has jet started the campaign
with its release on Trackitdown.Net. Backed up with an entourage of future
releases from a variety of accomplished artists, HTD is coming, prepare
yourself for more of this.
